Description
Standing proudly on the hilltop of the tiny village of Platystoma,in the cetral highlands of the island, the elegant mill is a carefully restored place, still possesing the good energy of people who were working there for life’s bare essentials for more than a century.
The mill is situated in 2000 sq.m. of private land.
With its breathtaking , unlimited view of the complex of miniscule islands, known as the Greek Polynesia (and in which Scorpios and Meganisi are included), the elegant mill is a fairy-tale , yet alternative holiday destination, with guaranteed absolute privacy.
The ground floor, contains a functional kitchen, while the first and top floors are transformed into cozy bedrooms. The bathroom and a second fully operational kitchen with big BBQ, are situated just outside the mill.
A 45 sq.m. studio with private bathroom is located next to the open air kitchen. The infinity pool , facing the aforementioned spectacular view of the greek Polynesia, is situated on the studio’s east side and the mill’s south. In the mill’s garden, there are various seating places for your breakfast, lunch or dinner or just relaxing .
The elegant mill is ideally located on the centre of the island , 15 km from the town of Lefkas, only 2 km away from the village of Karya- where you can find tavernas , mini markets, bars, pharmacies and cafeterias- and 15 to 30 min by car from practically every beach of the island, through a very good asphalt road network.

“Amazing property, perfect hosts, fabulous holiday!”
Having travelled throughout the Mediterranean over the years, I can truthfully say that our vacation at the Elegant Mill was the best holiday experience we have ever had. The property is wonderful; nicely balancing its quirky character with practicality in a setting that is simply beautiful. The owners have created a special environment for you to completely relax in. This was our first visit to Lefkada and we were very impressed by the friendliness of its people, its excellent food and inspiring landscape. Thomas and Yiannis are wonderful hosts, striving hard to ensure we got the most from our stay with excellent recommendations for restaurants in particular. We will be returning next year!
